And on all the official documents, there is a big line of bloody words - money, money, money, dear Royal Highness, please give us an allocation, enough money!

Money, lack of money!

Grain and grass, lack of food!

Equipment, lack of ordnance weapons!

At the end of the day, Arthur was short of money. On the surface, he expanded the private army of ten legions, but in private, he made a decision that was enough to shock the entire Western Continent, ten people drew one soldier, even in the craziest stage of the Hundred Years of Land Island War, this kind of thing never happened.

But the direct consequence of the frenzied expansion of the army was that Arthur was very short of money, and he was so poor that he could not even pay the salaries of the soldiers under his command! Not to mention enough food for these soldiers to consume! Not to mention the amount of ordnance and armor that was so large that it was crumbling!

Ordinary swords and swords, if they are a little better, require at least one gold coin; ordinary leather armor, even if it is a bad leather armor, you can't take it without three gold coins; as for longbows and crossbow arrows, this is even more expensive.

But you can't let all your soldiers go to battle with the worst weapons and the worst armor!

At the very least, you need to have a little higher grade of steel knives and long swords, which you can't get without five or six gold coins; at least you need to have a good level of ordinary leather armor or ordinary iron armor, which costs about ten gold coins; this is just the equipment of the most ordinary soldiers, those elite legions' heavy infantry, light cavalry, heavy cavalry and even Warcraft cavalry, plus those special magic crossbows, sniper crossbows, magic crossbows.

As well as the equipment of the siege machinery corps, an ordinary trebuchet is worth thousands of gold coins, and a little magic rune can easily cost tens of thousands of gold coins, and an ordinary stone bullet thrown costs the price of several silver coins, and the magic bullet thrown is even more according to the size of the magic power, ranging from tens, hundreds, thousands, and tens of thousands of gold coins.

If it's a strategic-level magic bullet with a small forbidden spell-level magic attached, you can't take it down without millions of gold coins!

Arthur assembled an army of such a perverted scale. The gold consumed is also of perverted scale. As a rough estimate, without the investment of hundreds of millions of gold coins, Arthur simply could not afford the consumption of this army. This is only the most basic consumption, considering the loss of ordnance during the march and the cost of grain and grass, this figure will have to be multiplied several times!

All the official documents are crying and asking for money, and what Arthur lacks now is money!

"Lady Greenfen, my dear little beauty, I hope you will get as much money as you can from that lovely earl!" said Arthur, annoyedly, taking all the gold coins...... Oh. No. He threw all the official documents on the ground and walked out of the office with a gloomy face.

"How many gold coins do I have in my treasury?" Arthur looked coldly at his attendant.

The attendant officer smiled bitterly: "Your Highness." You still have 370,000 gold coins in your treasury. It's your last money!"

Arthur's body shook, and he almost didn't vomit blood. He scraped land for several years in several northern provinces. Even on the eastern plains, he raised a number of nobles to collect money, and all the money he looted was spent in the past year?

What nightmare news!

Taking a deep breath, Arthur said in a deep voice: "Allocate this money to the Snow Birch Heavy Cavalry Regiment, they have been training hard these days, and the horseshoes are extremely worn, let them use this money to replace the horseshoe!"

The Snow Birch Heavy Cavalry Regiment was one of the most gold-swallowing legions of Arthur's openly expanded regular legions. 60,000 regular heavy cavalry. Together with the 120,000 leather-clad cavalry, there were more than 300,000 mounts in total. Half of these mounts are ordinary horses, and the horseshoe needs to be replaced from time to time, which is a lot of money.

After allocating the last 370,000 gold coins, Arthur was officially destitute, except for a few gold coins in his pocket, he no longer had a penny. Fortunately, the huge palace he built outside the city of New Dunker cost nothing - all the craftsmen and men brought their own rations. Otherwise he would really be crying.

Dejected, he left the palace with a group of knights, and Arthur walked through the alleys of New Dunker in a daze. He wants to use these remote alleys to sort out his thoughts, how can he get more money?

All the means available to him now have been used, and it is impossible for Mrs. Greenfen to come up with more cash for him, after all, Lady Greenfen is now under his control. But there was a behemoth behind Lady Greenfen, the old immortal fellow. It was Arthur who was unwilling to provoke lightly.

On his own, Arthur didn't have any talent for management, and he really couldn't figure out where to get the money.

Wandering all the way, Arthur led the people to the port of New Dunker. Lin Li and Yun Tianyi's undead ships were still unloading, and a large number of strange goods from the Undead Continent and the Eastern Continent were being sent into the port's warehouse by horse-drawn carriage.

Forget about the goods of the Eastern Continent, these things are still relatively common. But those strange items produced on the Undead Continent are valuable treasures in the Western Continent. For example, some special herbs that are contaminated with the breath of the undead are necessary ingredients for secret medicine masters to refine various secret medicines that prolong life and stay youthful.

Such a medicinal herb, those noble ladies and ladies will go crazy for them.

Arthur looked at the mountain of goods, his eyes flashing with a dazzling fierce light. Perhaps, he found a new way to make money.

"Of course, my father, Lord Blackbeard, your old business, how did I forget this?" Arthur laughed weirdly: "Of course, the cargo ships that have entered the harbor are not good targets for plunder, but what about the merchant ships that have not yet entered the harbor? ”

Arthur blinked desperately, and with great interest, he left the civilian port and strode towards the military dock across the mountain.

Climb up a hill to the east of the port of Neudenker and go down the avenue carved out in the mountain, and another huge bay below the hill is where the military port of Neudenker is located. Today, the entire Gallic Empire's North Sea Garrison is stationed in this military port, and aside from the warships that are cruising and patrolling the North Sea, there are about 150 heavy warships docked here all year round.

When Arthur led the people into the military port, a high-pitched horn sounded, and two tattered troop transports were slowly landing on a pier with thick black smoke. With the sound of neat slogans, both teams were covered in blood, but the high-spirited fighters walked down neatly from the troop carrier.

The two teams of warriors combined were only more than 300 people, but their morale was high, and there was a thick evil aura around them, and all the rune weapons they were holding were rune weapons, and there were neat rune shields made by dwarves hanging on their backs, and under the shields were all heavy repeaters.

And behind the few fighters who didn't have shields on their backs, what they were carrying was an ultra-long-range sniper crossbow from Qingyi'er.

And what we all know is that the reason why the ultra-long-range sniper crossbow has such a perverted range is because the magic array above it provides super power for the arrows. In other words, every sniper crossbow is a serious magic crossbow. And a qualified magic crossbow, no matter how cheap it is, its unit price will cost tens of thousands of gold coins.

The armor on these warriors is even more rune leather armor, these rune leather armor is light and dexterous, which does not hinder their mobility in the slightest, but the defensive power of these armors is comparable to that of alloy plate armor.

There is no doubt that this is an elite soldier, and there are very few such elite squads in Arthur's army.

Arthur looked at this brave army with satisfaction, and he happily asked, "This team is good, their boss is ......"

Before the words fell, Arthur's face changed suddenly, and he stared at Enzo and the others who walked slowly out of the bow of the boat, and his face turned iron blue.

Enzo, Linzi's hardcore Enzo, was in Dunrk, when Arthur was an adopted child of Blackbeard, and when Linzi was the eldest young master of the Black Tiger family, Enzo had a conflict with Arthur in Dunerke. At that time, Arthur was completely suppressed by Lin Qi in the Black Tiger family, and Enzo's collision with Arthur made Arthur unforgettable for a lifetime.

But when Arthur succeeded in sending Linzi to the Black Abyss Prison, and when Arthur's status in the Gallic Empire rose step by step, Arthur had ignored Enzo's insignificant 'little man'. He just sent Arthur under his command in a letter, and then he completely forgot about Enzo's cunning.

But the generals, who were very good at slapping horses, arranged for Enzo to take his brothers on various mortal missions again and again.

Trap after trap, breakthrough after breakout, Enzo went from a dignified colonel to a captain, and his subordinates were only a few hundred people left.

Arthur thought that Enzo had died in the chaos a long time ago, but he never dreamed that the Enzo he saw today, he actually controlled such a fierce and powerful elite army!

Like a sharp sword, Enzo walked down the gangway with a mighty stride, leading his warriors in a procession toward the Cedar Legion's garrison. Arthur and the others stood in the distance, and there were warriors in armor everywhere, and Enzo did not notice Arthur.

Staring at the distant backs of Enzo and his party, Arthur took a deep breath.

"The current commander of the Cedar Legion did not do well, and was handed over to the correctional center to be tortured and punished for heresy. ”

"I've heard that there has been an unusual movement of those alien races in the Odin Ice Fields recently, which I am afraid will be detrimental to the Gallic Empire. In order to detect the movements of the aliens, an elite team must be sent to infiltrate the Odin Ice Field, go deep into the ice field, capture at least one wizard of the Odin Temple, and torture the alien race about their battle plans! Remember, it must be the most elite and well-equipped team!"

Arthur glanced sideways at the squire standing beside him, and said in a low voice, "Remember, it's the most well-equipped!"

The attendant nodded knowingly, Enzo and the others who had just disembarked from the ship, they were very well equipped!

But the surprise is, where did these guys get their equipment?

However, it doesn't matter, because they don't need any equipment anymore because they're very fast.
